KZ reviews

We Love our 2021 KZ Durango we ordered it from the factory in 2020 during the pandemic. We ordered so we could get all the options that we wanted. We like the build quality I think it’s a well built Rv . For its price point . we like the floor plan and love the bathroom with it s double vanity. It tows great behind my 2018 Ram 3500. I love the fact that it has huge holding tanks. Plenty of freshwater. We ordered it with the residential refrigerator however it only has a 1200 W inverter so when Boondocking it is hard to keep the batteries charged up just purchased new set a batteries yesterday hope they will work for us better than the batteries that came with. I wished it would have had a 2000 W inverter and heavier duty RV Batteries . Also thing I’m not happy with is the decals peeling off the front of could have them better job on their decals. all in all, we really couldn’t be much happier. It’s definitely the nicest RV we’ve ever owned however it is plenty big getting into smaller campsites. It is 40 feet long. The factory says it is 3710, but I measured it and put a cover on it and it is 40 feet long so it is plenty big. I was really happy. It has a receiver hitch on it with wiring so we can tow a utility trailer which a lot of fifth wheels do not are not set up for towing with lights so that was a nice option they have.. One other thing like to mention is it has tons of storage. Show less

This RV is perfect for long term living, or weekend excursions. We purchased it to live in while we were building our home and it is the perfect floor plan complete with every element to make that experience possible and comfortable for every season. The mid bedroom is perfect for kids room or an office. With an additional queen size bed in the loft above . It has been very well maintained Show less

We bought this trailer used, about 3 years old. Had some issues with it and the dealer finally fixed them and I fixed the rest. It looked new at that point. One thing though that I have now is the decals are peeling everywhere on the trailer. The dealer and KZ will do nothing accept charge me over $100.00 for more decals as well as trying to get them is a real pain through KZ. My trailer looks 10 years old now. As they peel I tried reheating to stick them back on but to no avail. Still come un-stuck. Cheap quality. I have started taking them completely off now. This is my 4th travel trailer and never had this issue ever! Sad, as it is a decent trailer otherwise. Extremely poor support from KZ. Will never buy one again. Never! Show less

We love this 2024 floor plan and the features that it comes with. Unfortunately, it was VERY poorly designed and assymbled at the factory and Thor/KZ will not make it right on this brand new fifth wheel! The KZ representative is very snotty to me and to the dealership where we are trying to get this unit back to the condition that it should have been in when delivered! 1. The on demand water heater leaked like a fire hose! 2. The 2 sliding doors between the bath and BR fall off every time we travel! 3. The sliding king size bed falls apart! 4. A wheel hub fell off on our first trip! 5. NUMEROUS fit and finish issues and lack of quality! If Thor/KZ would just not be such rude jerks and fix what they should fix, we would be happy. Appearently, Thor/KZ does not opperate how most businesses do. Even the dealership is amazed! Show less

We purchased this rig pre-owned. This is our seventh camper/RV in the past 17 years. So far its our favorite. Overall construction is better than average. Although this is a small 5th wheel, its layout makes it seem roomier. The rear kitchen is perfect for us, as we can both prep our meals together. There are lots of cabinets and drawers for all our stuff. The bathroom is comfortable and has a roomy 30x36 inch shower, a huge storage cabinet, and a ceramic bowl toilet. The bedroom is on the smaller side, but still has a full queen mattress. On the negative side, if you taller than 6 ft this may not work for you. Although the living area has tons of head room, the bedroom doesn't. I'm 5'10" and I can easily walk at the foot of the bed, but it quickly tapers off towards the head of the bed. Also, I had to modify some overhead lights as they are too bright. In particular, the bed light and the two lights over the couch. Overall, this is a great camper for the right couple, and we're glad we own it. Show less

We purchased a new 2018 KZ Sportsmen in Oct. 2017. There were some quality issues that started within the first year. Initially some of the external decals began to peel. We had some replaced under warranty, but others peeled after the warranty expired. I've had to have the water pump replaced twice. About the summer of 2023 we noticed the jackknife sofa (made by Lippert) began to crack and peel. I have since learned this was a very common issue with that sofa. The KZ manufacturer gave me the Lippert manufacturing number to try and get some type of replacement. Lippert's employees will sell a Thomas Payne sofa as an aftermarket solution at a discount. Unfortunately, they have the retail price higher than the Amazon price, which means they're still making a nice profit while supposedly trying to "help" the consumer; however, even with a discount they don't have the sofa we need until June according to one of their aftermarket sales agents. So, I bought from Amazon which will deliver next week. KZ seems to wash their hands of any responsibility, also. Beware, Lippert jackknife couches are still found in many of the new RV's. Show less

Excellent RV for active family that enjoys camping and their toys! Nice deck, with railing, for a view of the river, lake or beach! Extra sleeping and a generator to go off grid! Large residential refrigerator and covered slides. Can't go wrong with this unit. We are nearing retirement and need to downsize. We are looking for a smaller unit and we are limited on our toys at our golden age Show less

We chose this KZ Escape due to it's open floorplan. Two years later we are still discovering issues since buying it brand new in 2022. Plumbing around toilet and water tank had to be tightened to avoid leaking the first week. All window shades had to be reattached due to poor installation. The slide out has had multiple retraction issues. The motors have to be overridden and the slide out manually pushed in/out. In addition it was discovered that a manufacturers shop rag had been left in the seal on top of the slide causing the slide to leak when it rains. Just this week (March 2024) we wondered why the dining table looked warped. Turns out the adhesive used to cover the table with "wallpaper" has failed. The entire table wallpaper comes off now. Let's not forget last year when the family was out of town except one. He just happened to go outside and saw that the battery had caught fire. Thankfully he was able to remove the propane tank before it exploded causing the rv to burn to the ground. This is just a small list of issues on top of the lack of customer service on every end concerning our RV. WE WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER KZ RV. Show less

This Fifth wheel is a complete piece of garbage. Purchased brand new. On delivery, the convertor was bad. The refrigerator didn’t work. The back patio awning was broken. Some of the window treatments were falling off the walls. Sent it back to fix. They fixed the window treatment and replaced the refrigerator with a cheaper model. Nothing was done to the awning. Sent it back three months later the refrigerator was replaced. Nothing fixed on the awning. Since then, one of the fireplaces is messed up. The window at the dining room is leaking really bad. The front side awning won’t go back in. For $100k you would expect better. Do yourself a favor and do not purchase this. You will have nothing but issues. Show less

Bought brand new and every time we go on a trip there is a new issue. Leaking pipes, slide out went out, screws popping out every trip, couch unscrewing etc. I asked the MFR when does it qualify for lemon law and their response is all trailers loosen up when moved which is bull because I have had trailers for a long time. Very disappointed in how cheaply this is manufactured. Front window where we sleep leaks air like we are in a tent and have to sleep with bonus and I had the dealer seal it for us. Show less
